Enable 2-Boxing for Team99

It might have been said already, but adding two boxing along with going to a strict classic resist system are what I care about most.

1. It is my understanding that a lot of people already two box on the other 99 servers. This could relieve some of the work load off of gms to focus on other discretion's, such as 3 boxing.

2. This server will have no where near a live 1999 population. Even on early red99 with a 700ish pop and a good starting guild I could not consistently get an xp group as a rogue. The addition of 2-boxing will allow players of all classes(melee) to "solo" there way to 50. It is a necessary addition to make up for non classic population.

3. There will also be a higher population with two boxing, albeit not real players, but on a pvp server a kill is a kill. Having 2-boxing will directly lead to more pvp, that is, more kills and deaths.

I am looking forward to trying the server either way.

Thanks for posting. I agree that there will be those who will be at a disadvantage from not 2-boxing. However, I feel that those people will be a select few and will continue to play on the server. Where as the people who want to 2-box and cannot will leave the server and create the red99 model all over again. 2-boxing is better for the overall health of the server.

Naikon has been added to the list of players ill keep my good eye on

Its enabled on every other pvp emu and majority of pve emus for a reason.

got my good eye on sektors too

If you ever were unfortunate enough to play on the Sleeper, you'd have seen how shitty widespread boxing makes the game. Adding it to a PvP setting would be even worse imo.

here's the problem with keeping two boxing illegal, the GM's have admitted they can't do shit to stop it so the only people being penalized are the ones obeying the unenforceable rules while lite/brainz and co box with impunity
